This route combines climbs of Del Campo and Gothic in one trip. It takes us to the beautiful and popular Gothic Basin, on the Mt. Highway loop east of Everett. VERY popular, hence it's a good idea to avoid the weekend! You can either camp overnight in Gothic Basin, SE or SW of Foggy lake, or do a car-car circuit of the basin in a long day. Total for the two peaks is 10 miles, 5000 feet gain. Long but rewarding day!
